The season of love is almost upon us, so bring your partner, your friends, or just yourself and come learn a few self-love tricks from our friends over at E.C.Organics! They’ll be taking over to teach you about relaxation and other potential benefits of using CBD oil in your self-care routine. Come by and you’ll get to make a personal care product with your very own oil ($33 value!), you’ll relax with a short massage and a latte (both with CBD oil, of course!), and because this is a sip and salvage, your first beer is on us (if you’re 21+)! We’re going all out for this workshop–you do NOT want to miss this!
